Ingredients
  

For the Muffins
  • 2 cups diced red bell pepper about 2 medium peppers
  • ½ cup chopped scallions or green onions
  • 9 large eggs
  • 1 clove garlic grated
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt heaping
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ¾ teaspoon baking powder
  • cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Extra-virgin olive oil for greasing the pan

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a nonstick muffin tin with a drizzle of olive oil, ensuring every cup is well-coated.
  3. Evenly divide the diced red bell pepper and chopped scallions among the muffin cups.
Mixing
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs until well blended.
  2. Add the grated garlic, sea salt, and a few grinds of black pepper to the eggs.
  3. Sprinkle the flour and baking powder on top, and whisk until combined; don't worry about a few lumps of flour.
Baking
  1. Pour the egg mixture evenly into the muffin cups—about a scant ¼ cup in each.
  2. Top each cup with crumbled feta cheese.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 22 to 24 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set.
  4. Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before gently removing them from the pan.

Notes

These egg muffins can be served warm or at room temperature. For a delightful presentation, arrange them on a colorful platter. Pair them with fresh fruit or a side of yogurt for a balanced breakfast. They also make a great addition to brunch spreads! If you have leftovers, store the muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer them to a freezer-safe container and thaw before serving.
